“My goal is to never isolate anyone, but simply to meet people wherever they are at,” sums up McDonald of his latest collection. “In the way I speak and in the content of my songs, I just want to show people a glimpse of the journey I’m on, complete with all of its imperfections and the wisdom I’ve learned along the way. I don’t want to be looked at as someone on the edge because I’m just trying to speak in a language that will reach the culture we live in. I’m just trying to be positive and say things that are hopefully going to help people in their life, instead of just adding more to the negative drone that’s out there. I don’t feel like I have any agenda other than to make meaningful music that comes passionately from my heart, and in the case of Brave, I just hope people will take the time to listen, let it soak in and that hopefully it will inspire them in some way as we all continue to seek and grow.”
